Active Balanced Video Outputs
If you are running your video signals a long distance (i.e.
greater than 50’) than you should consider the Active
Balanced Output on your Maestro M2e. This RJ-45 con-
nector uses CAT-5 wiring to send a signal to an optional
AudioControl balanced line receiver, such as the BVR-25 or
BVR-20. Additionally the CAT-5 can also transmit a digital
audio signal or provide remote power for the BVR-25. The
switch conveniently located next to the RJ-45 connector al-
lows you to select the proper output configuration.
For reference, AudioControl’s Active Balanced Technology is
based on the balanced signal distribution format, which is
the standard in the professional video and audio environ-
ments. Because of their design, balanced transmissions
inherently reject the vast majority of hum, noise, or distor-
tion introduced along the signal path. Additionally, the Ac-
tive circuitry used in AudioControl’s products allows high
quality video and audio strength to be maintained over
longer distances than traditional passive devices.
Video Transcoding
To simplify your installations, the Maestro M2e provides
video transcoding which routes the S-video and composite
signals to the Component outputs of your Maestro M2e.
The following video translation is available:

High quality conversion between the various video signal
connection formats is a tricky thing and best left to dedi-
cated video processors.
